During the gold rush, miners were not only digging up gold, but other things as well. Pioneer scientist and physician Dr. Perez Snell was often the first to see these discoveries as they were brought to his Sonora assay office to be identified. Dr. Snell‘s Cabinet of Curiosities grew until it was heralded as the largest and most complete collection of natural history on the Pacific Coast.
Join us for a lively presentation and discussion with David Allen Simerley about the curiosities sometimes found in the cabinet.
